Reading Indoor Bouldering (in tandem with pub social)

This bouldering session and the post-workout social event at a nearby pub present an ideal opportunity for a fun evening/night out. Of course you can choose both or either event as you see fit. Our bouldering sessions are always sociable and friendly! (On the other hand, the only possible climbing at the pub is up a flight of stairs :D)

The beauty of bouldering lies in its simplicity: you don't need ropes or a harness, just some climbing shoes which can be hired at the centre and a drive to get the top and overcome some trepidation. It's also a fundamentally social experience, with most of the session spent discussing how to solve particular climbing routes ("bouldering problems") or catching up with each other in between climbs. Bouldering is a great way to get into climbing, come and see what all the fuss is about! 

All skill levels are welcome. If you're new to climbing, we've got you covered with tailored guidance, boosting your skills and confidence while ensuring your safety on and around the wall.

Experienced boulderer? Dive in and embrace the challenges independently. Just remember to follow the centre's rules for your own safety.

Our ethos is inclusivity. I keep our group tight-knit to foster connection and ensure personalised coaching for everyone, regardless of your experience level. Many climbers started their journeys relatively “late” in life, incl. some session leaders 🤫

We convene at the Climbing Hangar in Reading, one of the largest climbing centres in the region. The generously spacious and friendly cafe/lounge is my personal favourite where you can find us socialising, having a cuppa, snacks or even pizza before and after the climbs.
